Smokers In Indiana Can Obtain COVID Vaccine Before Teachers Due to Change in State Guidelines On 2/26/21 at 5:05 PM EST Indiana state health officials are permitting smokers on COVID-19 vaccine waitlists over teachers, angering school professionals. According to the [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention], smokers and people suffering severe obesity are at higher risk of severe illness or death and therefore can be considered for standby list, a spokesperson for the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) said in an email to WISH-TV in response to the move. We follow the CDC s recommendations. Indiana counties will each be responsible for deciding whether or not to allow smokers on the vaccine wait lists and the move does not mean if someone is a smoker they can simply schedule a vaccine appointment online. The state is still administering its doses only to key age groups, healthcare workers and first responders.
